Headphones for You

Help me give my students headphones so that their online curriculum can read to them. When 20+ Chromebooks are being used with volume, no learning will go on. Having headphones will help assist students learn 1:1.

My Project

Headphones are essential every day in our classroom. Without working headphones, it is extremely difficult for my SPED students to complete their daily online assignments. Because headphones do not last forever, there is a constant need for new headphones. Students also cannot share headphones as we have in previous school years. While it would be ideal for each student to bring their own headphones and for headphones to last all school year, neither of those usually happens. We use Chromebooks daily for multiple subjects. My students need these headphones to be successful. If they cannot provide their own pair, or theirs break, headphones are great to have to continue supporting my students academically!

In our classroom, we use headphones and microphones.

Headphones with a microphone help engage and empower learning.

Please help us purchase new headphones that fit students of all ages comfortably.

This project will help replace the broken headphones in our classroom. It will also provide headphones that are comfortable for learners of every age and help our students hear their Science courses through Gizmo learning. I want students to focus on the content. by filling this project, we will have a new classroom set of headphones that are comfortable and fit young adult students.
